The zucchini fairies are working overtime and I’ve got enough zukes to choke a horse right now. I thought I’d look for a zucchini bread that I could adapt for the MD and when this one came up in a search it looked like a worthy candidate. First because I much prefer savory over sweet and second because it really didn’t need much adapting. All I did was use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose. Yes, there are ingredients in it that are towards the top of the MD pyramid—mainly eggs and cheese—but it’s not like anyone’s gonna eat the whole loaf in one sitting and considering I got 13 slices out of it and one slice was very satisfying, I’d say it falls within the guidelines even if not as a regular thing. YMMV. 😁 Most importantly though, it’s delicious.

    That looks lovely. If I didn’t hate olives I would be trying it. 🙃

    Wow, this looks delicious! I’d rather have cheese than sugar any day.
